MAINTENANCE
SPOOL REPLACEMENT
See Figure 15.
Use only round type .065 in. diameter monofilament string. Use original manufacturer’s replacement string for best performance.
Remove the battery pack.
Push in tabs on side of spool retainer.
Pull spool retainer up to remove.
Remove the old spool.
To install the new spool, make sure the string is captured in the slot on the new spool. Make sure the end of the string is extended approximately 6 in. beyond the slot.
Install the new spool so that the string and slot align with the eyelet in the string head. Thread the string into the eyelet.
Pull the string extending from the string head so the string releases from the slot in the spool.
Reinstall the spool retainer by depressing tabs into slots and pushing down until spool retainer clicks into place.
STRING REPLACEMENT
See Figures 15 - 16.
Remove the battery pack.
Remove the spool from the string head.
NOTE: Remove any old string remaining on the spool.
Cut a piece of string approximately 9 ft. (2.7 m) long. Use only .065 in. (1.65 mm) diameter monofilament string.
Insert the string into the anchor hole in the upper part of the spool. Wind the string around the upper part of the spool clockwise, as shown by the arrows on the spool. Place string in the slot on upper spool flange, leaving about 6 in. (152 mm) extended beyond the slot. Do not overfill. After winding the string, there should be at least 1/4 in. (6 mm) between the wound string and the outside edge of the spool.
Replace the plastic retainer, spool, and the spool retainer. Refer to Spool Replacement earlier in this manual.
